The folks at Creative Guy Publishing have started shipping the first issue of TALES OF MOREAUVIA a shared-universe magazine devoted to a steampunk world.
Enjoying steampunk might seem to go against my professed love of classic science fiction, but consider – its spaceships and ray guns in the Victorian Era.
You can’t get more ‘classic’ than that.
The first issue features a story by Gary Wolf (Roger Rabbit/Space Vulture) and I’m looking forward to getting mine in the mail.
They’ve got a forum set up on the site – go visit.
Steampunk is the modern equivalent of good old fashioned fun reading. I’ll pick up a copy.
Great!
Now I can finally say that someone is spending dollars on something recommended by the blog!
(Hey – Madison Avenue!)
It’s always a pleasure when you get results from a blog.
Oh, and what’s your take on Sax Rohmer?
I’m very SF oriented; I’ve read a few of the Fu Manchu stories and they’re ok – but I’m not a ‘everything pulp’ kind of guy. I’ve read some of the Hero pulps (Shadow for examle), some westerns, some sea stories, some battle, some horror, and most are all ok (quality varies greatly in the pulps), but I’m ivory soap (99.44) for SF.
